-WJC Swedish coach Roger Ronnberg has asked the Swedish federation to intervene with Ottawa in the hopes of getting Mika Zibanejad to Ufa. He said:

It is a big disappointment that Ottawa does not want to release Mika to join the team for the World Juniors. I have asked our federation to intervene and I am confident they will. Having said that, I must focus on the players I have and I can’t let that [Ottawa not releasing Zibanejad] steal energy from my work.
